Black Bridal Bliss Out & About!

Triple B has been busy! Take a look at what we’ve been up to around New York City. Fun times.Last month Old Navy launched a new athletic collection and guess who they got to help with this debut? None other than the workout master himself, Richard Simmons. There I am with Simmons above and again below trying to keep those 2013 fitness goals in order…I’m way behind on those goals but I had a ball sweating to the oldies with other NYC magazine editors at the event.

Last week Martha Stewart Weddings held a bridal event at the new Tiffany & Co. store in the Soho section of NYC. This soiree included a live band, calligrapher, photo booth, cookies and the opportunity to try on as much bling as attendees wanted. The best part? A couple actually got engaged at the shindig! Check out a couple of lovely pics from the evening below:

And on Sunday, I had the pleasure of being the MC at a wonderful event from After I Do on Keeping the Passion Alive After the Wedding. The panelists included Claire Cavanah, co-founder of Babeland (toy store) and sex therapist Dr. Megan Fleming. The panel was moderated by Essence Magazine’s relationship editor (and my homie!) Charreah Jackson. It was an enjoyable yet informative day and hardly felt like work.

Triple B has more exciting events and collaborations up the pike so stay tuned!

Erica, working out with Richard was so much fun. He was actually wearing hosiery (!) and a Swarovski crystal tank custom-made from Old Navy. It was hilarious. And I’m with you on the cost of the ring. As my own engagement ring — which I love — indicates, sentimental jewelry always trumps expensive jewelry for me!

1) The pic with Richard Simmons is EVERYTHING!
2) The ring is cute, but your fabulous “au naturale” nails are what caught my eye:-)
3) You are killing the game with that peplum. WERK!
4) You and Charreah are gorgeous Glamazons!
